Increases Share Repurchase Authorization to $150 Million

Redwood Trust, Inc. (NYSE:RWT, ", Redwood", , the ", Company", )), a leader in expanding access to housing for homebuyers and renters, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The Company also announced an expedited transition to the scalable and simplified operating model initially described at its March 2024 Investor Day, as well as an increased share repurchase authorization.

Accelerated shift towards operating model and wind-down of legacy portfolio holdings

Dispositions primarily focused on unsecuritized bridge loans and other non-core assets, now part of a new Legacy Investments⁽¹⁾ reporting segment
Expected to generate up to $200-$250 million of incremental capital by year-end 2025 for efficient redeployment, complementing $302 million of unrestricted cash at June 30, 2025

Immediate avenues for capital redeployment to grow high-earning, core operating initiatives

Mortgage banking platforms continue to profitably scale
- Combined mortgage banking GAAP returns above 20% for four consecutive quarters
  - Capital allocated to mortgage banking has increased by $200 million since the second quarter 2024
- Company sees transformative growth opportunities through both ongoing strategic engagement with banks and unique positioning to benefit across a wide range of potential outcomes for housing finance reform
Simplified revenue mix to enhance transparency of valuation and predictability of earnings
- Mortgage banking activities – including upfront and recurring fee streams – and joint venture co-investments remain primary revenue drivers

Concurrent focus on return of capital to shareholders

In tandem, the Company announced an upsized common stock repurchase authorization to $150 million, reflecting confidence in the go-forward value of the franchise
The Company expects to expand upon the 2.4 million shares repurchased since June 2025

"This quarter marks a pivotal moment for Redwood as we further evolve toward a more scalable business underpinned by growing and durable fee streams," said Christopher Abate, Chief Executive Officer of Redwood. "By proactively reallocating capital from legacy investments into our high-performing platforms, we're enhancing our capacity to capitalize on growth opportunities in an evolving market landscape—unlocking greater long-term earnings potential while eliminating legacy overhangs that have impacted our current performance. Our strategic transition to a larger and simplified operating model includes an ongoing focus on partnerships with strategic capital providers—those looking both to acquire the assets our platforms originate and to invest directly in the expansion of our businesses."

Continued Abate, "Our recent common stock repurchases and the refreshed buyback authorization reflect our strong conviction in the strategic direction of the business. We plan to expand our repurchase activity in the third quarter as we continue to execute on this strategy. We remain highly encouraged by our competitive positioning, sustained demand from loan sellers and private capital partners, and compelling opportunities to scale our business and enhance long-term shareholder value."

Non-GAAP Disclosures

To supplement consolidated and segment financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company also provides the following non-GAAP measures:

Core Segments Earnings Available for Distribution ("Core Segments EAD")
Earnings Available for Distribution ("EAD")

Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide supplemental information to assist management and investors in analyzing the Company's results of operations and help facilitate comparisons to industry peers. Management also believes that these non-GAAP measures are metrics that can supplement its analysis of the Company's ability to pay dividends, by providing an indication of the current income generating capacity of the Company's operating platforms as of the quarter being presented. In addition, management believes its new non-GAAP Core Segments EAD measure provide supplemental information to assist management and investors in analyzing the Company's expedited transition to the scalable and simplified capital-efficient business model, which includes an accelerated wind-down of legacy portfolio holdings within its newly-established Legacy Investments segment.

These non-GAAP measures should not be utilized in isolation, nor should they be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders, GAAP ROE or other measurements of results of operations computed in accordance with GAAP or for federal income tax purposes.

Core Segments EAD. Core Segments EAD and Core Segments EAD ROE are new non-GAAP measures established in the second quarter 2025 and are used to present management's non-GAAP analysis (based on its non-GAAP Earnings Available for Distribution ("EAD") measure further described below) of the combined performance the Company's mortgage banking platforms and related investments (which consist of the Company's Sequoia Mortgage Banking, CoreVest Mortgage Banking and Redwood Investments segments and are defined as the Company's "Core Segments", inclusive of an allocated portion of the Company's Corporate segment relating to those segments).

Core Segments EAD excludes the Company's Legacy Investments segment and excludes an allocated portion of the Company's Corporate segment relating to the Legacy Investments segment.
Core Segments EAD per basic common share and Core Segments EAD ROE are also new non-GAAP measures established in the second quarter 2025 and are calculated using Core Segments EAD.
Core Segments EAD ROE is defined as Core Segments EAD divided by average capital attributable to Core Segments.

A further discussion of Core Segments EAD and a reconciliation of our non-GAAP Core Segments EAD measures to comparable GAAP measures is set forth below under the heading "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Core Segments EAD".

EAD. Earnings Available for Distribution ("EAD") and EAD ROE are non-GAAP measures that the Company has historically reported and continue to be used to present management's non-GAAP analysis of the performance of the Company's different business segments, and that continue to be calculated exclusive of any allocation of the Company's Corporate segment.

Consistent with prior quarter disclosures, EAD and EAD ROE are non-GAAP measures derived from GAAP Net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders and GAAP Return on common equity ("GAAP ROE" or "ROE"), respectively.
Consistent with prior quarter disclosures, EAD is defined as: GAAP net income (loss) available (related) to common stockholders adjusted to (i) exclude investment fair value changes, net; (ii) exclude realized gains and losses; (iii) exclude acquisition related expenses; (iv) exclude certain organizational restructuring charges (as applicable); and (v) adjust for the hypothetical income taxes associated with these adjustments.
Consistent with prior quarter disclosures, EAD ROE is defined as EAD divided by average capital utilized for each respective period.

A further discussion of EAD and a reconciliation of our non-GAAP EAD measures to comparable GAAP measures is set forth below under the heading "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP EAD".

Supplemental Non-GAAP Table - Illustrating EAD With Allocated Corporate Segment.

Management is also presenting a supplemental non-GAAP table in this section under the heading "Supplemental Table - EAD With Allocated Corporate Segment" to clearly illustrate a key distinction between the methodology for calculating the two non-GAAP measures described above – namely, Core Segments EAD and EAD. That key distinction relates to whether or not the non-GAAP measure allocates the Company's Corporate segment across its other reporting segments for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP measure of performance. Management believes this supplemental table assists management and investors in comparing the Company's two distinct non-GAAP measures described above.

1.		Certain totals may not foot due to rounding.
2.		This supplemental measure is presented to clearly illustrate a key distinction between the methodology for calculating the two non-GAAP measures discussed in this earnings press release and detailed in the preceding tables - namely, Core Segments EAD and EAD. That key distinction relates to whether or not the non-GAAP measure allocates the Company's Corporate segment across its other reporting segments for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP measure of performance. In this supplemental non-GAAP table, GAAP Net Income by segment is adjusted to (i) include allocations of the Corporate Segment to each of our Mortgage Banking segments, as well as to our Redwood Investments and Legacy Investments segments, (ii) exclude investment fair value changes, net (as applicable); (iii) exclude realized gains and losses (as applicable); (iv) exclude acquisition related expenses; (v) exclude certain organizational restructuring charges (as applicable); and (vi) adjust for the hypothetical income taxes associated with these adjustments.
3.		Allocation of Corporate Segment is a non-GAAP adjustment based on average capital utilized by each segment for the respective periods.
4.		Investment fair value changes, net includes all amounts within that same line item in our consolidated statements of (loss) income, which primarily represents both realized and unrealized gains and losses on our investments (excluding HEI) and associated hedges. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on our HEI investments are reflected in a separate line item on our consolidated income statements titled "HEI income, net".
5.		Realized (gains)/losses, net includes all amounts within that line item on our consolidated statements of income.
6.		Acquisition related expenses include transaction costs paid to third parties, as applicable, and the ongoing amortization of intangible assets related to the Riverbend and CoreVest acquisitions.
7.		Tax effect of adjustments represents the hypothetical income taxes associated with all adjustments used to calculate EAD.
